Body Acceptance

Body Acceptance

I was thumbing through the Internets looking for inspiration and found myself getting quite annoyed. (Tumblr can be a dark lonely bad place.) I stumbled across “reasons to lose weight” and realized mine were nothing like a lot of peoples. I kept seeing things like, “to sit on a guys lap”, “to not dread showing … Continue reading

Reflections

12 years later and I remember exactly where I was and exactly what I was doing. I’m sure all of us do. I was a Senior in High School and the first to find out. I was in the school office, late to class and dickign around. I remember the look of horror on our … Continue reading

I promised I’d share a couple of a good baking pics from the weekend. Here we go! My blueberry oatmeal muffins are 5PP and I will definitely be doing a recipe post for them. They are too delish not to! But there are no point values for these bad boys I like to call Pancake … Continue reading

My House is a non-profit organization that provides transitional housing and a home-like living environment for babies who are ready to leave the hospital but are homeless and have nowhere to go.

Moderation…or lack thereof.

Moderation…or lack thereof.

Moderation. I’m not a fan. I should be, but I’m not. One ounce of cheese? Why not 12? One triathlon? Why not 5? ALL. OR. NOTHING.

I sat down next to my dad totally bummed and mad myself. “All that hard work down the drain because you can’t keep your … Continue reading

All Up In My Pantry

All Up In My Pantry

This is what you’ll typically find in my kitchen at any given time. These are the foods in my belly:       Fruits: Raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, kiwis and plums.

An open apology, my ass

An open apology, my ass

I’m clearly a glutton for punishment because I’m about to bring this up. The “An Open Apology to All of My Weight Loss Clients” letter that’s going viral. I probably shouldn’t touch this with a 10 foot pole because I’m going to piss a lot of people off. However, if you have a few minutes, … Continue reading
